| Message | It is our firm belief, that private companies should have the right to own and run all internet service providers. It cannot be the case in this day and age, that the government not only owns internet providers, but can control the content of internet and regulation in this unfair and interfering way. We therefore think this measure is long overdue. Stanley Dobbings Science and Technology Secretary |

| Message | Cosmo Silvestre, Purveyor of Agnus Dei: "I am not sure this is even a conservative policy - more ultra-liberal economics. The Revolution requires control of all services - for the sake of the People and its security - and is therefore greatly opposed to this heinous act." |
